What if the worst thing ever said to you wasn’t just a memory—but a scar that shaped who you are?

In this episode, I’m opening up about a tough truth that most of us are either living with—or have dished out ourselves: anger and emotional volatility. Whether you're on the receiving end of it or you're the one dishing it out, today’s message is a wake-up call. I’m not just sharing concepts—I’m pulling straight from my own story, from childhood scars to leadership missteps, and how I finally learned that the strongest people don’t intimidate—they protect. You deserve relationships, workplaces, and a life where you feel safe to be your full self.

We’re not tiptoeing around the issue. We’re calling it out. If someone in your life makes you feel small, anxious, or afraid to speak freely—you’ve got to draw the line. Because you’re not just allowing it…you’re teaching them it’s okay. And that’s not love. That’s not leadership. That’s not life. I’m also giving you the tools—real, practical habits—that have helped me move from a reactive man to a regulated one.

And if you're the one struggling with anger, here's your moment. I’m not judging you—I've been you. I know what it means to erupt, to regret, to hurt the people you love most. But you can flip the switch. You can become the kind of person your family, your team, and your future self can count on. No more band-aids over bullet wounds. It’s time to make real change.

Key Takeaways:

How to recognize emotional abuse disguised as “passion” or “leadership”
The difference between a strong man and a scared one hiding behind anger
Why the contrast of “high highs” in toxic relationships can deceive you
Concrete steps to regulate anger before it destroys your identity and others
How your emotional patterns directly impact your kids and future generations
The one trait every safe, authentic, high-performing relationship has

You were born to do something great. And that starts with living a life where you're safe to be you. It's not just about love—it's about respect, belief, and emotional safety. Let’s stop normalizing anger, and start creating environments that heal.
